According to data from TrendForce reported by Focus Taiwan on Friday, the company solidified its dominance by capturing nearly 70% of the global foundry market in 2025. ## Market Share Gap Widens Taiwan Semiconductor reported 2025 revenue of $122.54 billion, representing a 36.1% increase year-over-year. This growth lifted its global foundry market share to 69.9%, up from 64.4% in 2024. In contrast, **Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd.** (OTC:SSNLF) remained a distant second with $12.63 billion in 2025 foundry sales. Samsung’s revenue fell 3.9% year-over-year, resulting in a 7.2% market share and highlighting the concentration of industry growth within Taiwan Semiconductor’s leading-edge production lines. During the fourth quarter of 2025, Taiwan Semiconductor’s market share reached 70.4%. While this was a slight dip from 71.0% in the third quarter, quarterly revenue still rose 2.0% sequentially to $33.72 billion. TrendForce attributed this revenue growth to higher average selling prices driven by robust demand for the 3-nanometer process, which offset a minor quarter-over-quarter decline in shipments. ## Industry Performance and Competitive Landscape The broader industry saw the 10 largest foundries generate a combined $169.47 billion in 2025 sales, a 26.3% increase over the previous year. Following the two market leaders, China’s **Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp.** ranked third with $9.33 billion in revenue and a 5.32% share. **United Microelectronics Corp.** (NYSE:UMC) followed with $7.63 billion and a 4.35% share, while **GlobalFoundries Inc.** (NASDAQ:GFS) recorded $6.79 billion, representing 3.87% of the market. The remaining top 10 positions included China’s **Huahong Group** at $4.50 billion (2.6%) and Israel’s **Tower Semiconductor Ltd.** (NASDAQ:TSEM) at $1.57 billion (0.89%). Taiwan’s Vanguard International Semiconductor followed closely at $1.56 billion (0.89%), alongside China’s NexChip at $1.51 billion (0.86%) and Taiwan’s Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing at $1.40 billion (0.80%). ## Taiwan Semiconductor Technical Analysis TSM is trading 5.6% below its 20-day simple moving average (SMA), but 7.4% above its 100-day SMA, which keeps the longer-term trend constructive even as the short-term trend is still repairing. Shares are up 96.23% over the past 12 months and are positioned closer to their 52-week highs than lows. The RSI is at 42.08, which sits in neutral territory but leans toward “cooling” momentum rather than an overbought condition. Meanwhile, MACD is at -0.0829 versus a signal line at 4.5270, a bearish configuration that suggests rallies may still face selling pressure until momentum flips. The combination of RSI in the 30–50 range and bearish MACD suggests mixed momentum. - **Key Resistance**: $351.50 - **Key Support**: $319.00 **TSM Price Action:** Taiwan Semiconductor shares were up 1.29% at $341.07 during premarket trading on Friday, according to Benzinga Pro data. _Photo via Shutterstock_ ### Related Stocks - [Direxion Daily TSM Bull 2X Shares (TSMX.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSMX.US.md) - [GraniteShares 2x Long TSM Daily ETF (TSMU.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSMU.US.md) - [VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SMH.US.md) - [iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXX.US.md) - [Direxion Daily Semicondct Bull 3X ETF (SOXL.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXL.US.md) - [Leverage Shares 2X Long TSM Daily ETF (TSMG.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSMG.US.md) - [State Street® SPDR® S&P® Smcndctr ETF (XSD.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/XSD.US.md) - [Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSM.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSM.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd. $TSM is Prime Capital Management Co Ltd's 2nd Largest Position](https://longbridge.com/en/news/279118786.md) - [Samsung Strike Confirmed for May.
